Traditionally capital punishment is reserved for those offenders found guilty beyond any reasonable doubt of the most heinous and foul crimes against persons or nation...Treason, premeditated murder, human trafficking, kidnapping for either profit or personal purposes, willful violence and sex crimes against children and the marketing of addictive substances without regard for the welfare of the end user are all crimes so abhorrent to civilized members of society that only the death of the offender can end the threat of recidivism, and bring some form of closure to victims and their survivors...

No change will be seen for those under sentence of death when the 13th Amendment is fully implemented other than a severely shortened life span in most cases...When the offender's status is changed to property, and all rights as a human are surrendered, the only duties left to the jurisdictional entity are verification that all steps have been taken to ensure a fair trial guaranteeing that a just verdict has been reached, followed by execution of sentence...No reason exists why these measures cannot be completed within the 30 days following the verdict...

Judicial review can be made by any judge or panel of judges quickly as any missteps taken by those involved should stand out glaringly, whether committed by prosecutors or defenders...If reason for retrial is indicated before execution, it can be scheduled to correct any previous mistakes...If mistakes are found after execution, an investigation will be made for the purpose of finding any willful or neglectful actions or omissions caused by prosecution, defense or judicial authorities which led to a wrongful verdict...

Depending on the severity and nature of the findings in the case of wrongful verdict after execution, suitable criminal and civil charges may be presented for criminal and civil actions against those responsible...Pre-knowledge of the penalties for errors or malicious acts in the judicial process can be a strong deterrent against improper decisions...

Sentence of death carries with it a sentence of slavery until execution...The offender therefore becomes the property of the sentencing entity which is also responsible for the maintenance of health of the property until sentence is complete...This responsibility carries with it not only the health of the body, but of mind and soul...Every effort must be made to provide medical care, counseling to prepare for the cessation of life, and any spiritual counseling needed by the offender for the transport of the soul...

Upon execution of sentence, the remains may be collected by family, or, if no claimants come forward, destroyed by cremation and returned to the earth...
